Patent EP-2113700-A3 (EP)
Inventor: SHINDO NOBUO
IPC: B29D24/00
Filed: 2009-04-23
Abstract: A method for producing a thermally insulated hose comprises the steps of (A) forming a cylindrical inner layer from a soft resin; (B) winding a reinforcing member helically around the inner layer for uniting with each other to form the flexible inner tube comprising the inner layer and the reinforcing member, the reinforcing member comprising a hard resin and protruding from an outer periphery of the inner layer toward an outer surface of the hose; (C) winding a thermal insulating elastic strip around an outer side of the flexible inner tube for forming a thermal insulating layer; and (D) forming an outer layer on an outermost side of the thermal insulating layer for immobilizing or fixing the thermal insulating strip. In the step (C), the thermal insulating strip is helically wound around the outer side of the flexible inner tube with arranging a cross section of the strip substantially parallel to the axial direction of the hose, with opposing or facing adjacent lateral edges of the strip to each other, with forming a gap between an inner surface of the strip and an outer surface of the inner layer, and with compressing the strip in a thickness direction at a contact area in which the strip contacts with the reinforcing member. The thermally insulated hose suppresses the protrusion of the inner layer inside the hose and the increase of flow resistance of a fluid even when the hose is bent.

Abstract: A detection method for detecting a property of an extended pattern formed by at least one line generally extending in a first direction. The extended pattern is formed on a substrate or on a substrate table and preferably extends over a length of at least 50x the width of the line. The extended pattern is focus sensitive. The detection method includes moving the substrate table in a first direction and measuring along that first direction a property of the extended pattern. The property can be a result of a physical property of the extended pattern in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. In a next step a calibration of the substrate table position can be derived from the measured position of the extended pattern.

Abstract: Safety of a servo system is assured without replacing an encoder used in the servo system with an encoder having a safety function. A servo driver sets an instruction value for an operation of a servo motor based on an instruction signal from a controller. The servo driver sends the instruction value and a feedback value obtained based on a feedback signal to a safety unit. When at least one of the instruction value sent by the servo driver and the feedback value has an abnormal value, a STO signal is generated and the STO signal is sent to the servo driver. When the STO signal is input to the servo driver, the servo driver stops supply of electricity to the servo motor. Configuring a servo system that complies with safety standards by using a conventionally-used encoder is made possible.

Abstract: Described herein is a method of increasing the dynamic range of pixels in an imaging sensor. Two image captures are performed, one at a first short integration time ( T   1 ) and one at a second optimum integration time ( T   1 ,  T   2  ,  T   max ). An electrical value (V A (1), V B (1), V c (1)) obtained from a pixel or group of pixels at the first short integration time ( T   1 ) is used to predict the second integration time ( T   1   , T   2  ,  T   max ) using a comparison with a set of reference values (V t (i)). The reference values (V t (i)) are related to a saturation electrical value ( V sat   ) for each pixel or group of pixels to predict the second integration time ( T   1 ,  T   2  ,  T   max ). The first short integration time ( T   1 ) is determined as a fractional multiple of the saturation electrical value ( V sat   ), and the second integration times ( T   1 ,  T   2  ,  T   max ) are such that there is no saturation of the pixel or group of pixels. Adjustments can be made to the reference values to allow for offset immunity and variability in light levels during the second integration time.
